Looks like a ratbox build. I love ol kustoms like this, I still remember one like this from Ballarat Back in 1990. Was a station wagon with rear doors welded and bogged up and rear windows filled in. Id almost say this one was it, but I doubt it. Make sure you get it back on the road chevfan and save a good bit of Australia kulture.

Welcome to the forum chevfans, that looks like Ratbox`s old toy-no doubt he will chime in shortly and let you know if it is.
